that III luck Is pursuing this Ministry,
and fresh stroke would be no sur
prise. 1t Is noted that Churchill
wodld not even 60 to Osborne to de
liver up the seals of the Exchequer,
which Salisbury had himself to put
IN Her Majesty's hands. Chamber
lain's tone at the conference may be
inferred from a letter written by his
next friend, Jesse Ceilings, with
Chamberlain's approval. "Home
rule" says Ceilings, ''as defined by
Gladstone, has receded during the
last few months. The Liberals, if
they fought the battle on that ground,
would be hopelessly defeated; but the
Liberal party on platform of Irish
land reform, decent realization, ex-
tension of local government and other
questions on which we are all agreed
and enthusiastic, would have fair
chance of winning" This is nearly
equivalent to saying that the Liber-
ais might win with Chamberlain's
support, but not otherwise.
LONDON. Jan. 14.-Lord Randolph
nj, 'hurchill, in letter explaining his
signation from the Cabinet, SAYS
his object was to secure economy,
combined with efficiency. He will
gladly cooperate with anyone in the
endeavor to induce or compel the
Commons to revert to the better
financial principles which prevailed
before 1874. He continues: "If
economy Is unpopular in Downing
street we must make it popular.
Calamities incalcuable will result if
the present system of lavish, uncon-
trolled expenditure be allowed to con
tinue"
Gladstone thinks this letter does
honor to Churchill, and offers the
latter a chance to again raise the flag
Of economy.
Notwithstanding rumors to the
contrary, there is reason to believe
that Chamberlain has not wavered in
his conviction that the land problem
Is the root Of the Irish controversy.
The Government has decided to
purchase 10000 additional horses and
100000 Manchester repeating rifles,
TO be ready March 1st.
